John Perkins is an American author. His best known book is Confessions of an Economic Hit Man (2004), in which Perkins describes playing a role in a process of economic colonization of Third World countries on behalf of what he portrays as a cabal of corporations, banks, international financial institutions, and the United States government. Perkins' claims were strongly contested by some involved parties as well as those familiar with the topics, and the book spent more than 70 weeks on the New York Times bestseller list.
